I have had several varicella vaccinations as well as a dose of the chicken pox. My immunity dissipates over time ( for whatever reason). My aunt is the same. DD was immunised and still got a bad dose which had lasting medical implications over a year later. It can be quite serious and it regularly spreads through schools.
We got it. DH is immune compromised so we got t while he was overseas. It's the easiest one we've ever one, and all DD remembers now is that she got a sticker and got to play with a ball.
No harm in delaying, though, I don't reckon. CP sucks more when you're older, and it's harder to catch these days because it's less common. So would be easy enough to go back and get it at age 12 or so.
